BOUND BY SHADOWS

chapter Two

"Ow!!!!!!!" I pulled my hands back, wincing Touching her felt like hitting a solid stone statue. She didn't bulge, I grabbed her shoulders and shook her vigorously despite the pain I was feeling in both arms, but she remained completely frozen.

Desperate for response I stepped around to face her ,the moment I saw her face ,a horrific scream tore from my throat. Fletcher flinched violently at my shrill cry.

"OH MY GOD!!!!!" I gasped, she looked like a monster, her eyelids were stretched wide and where her eyeballs should have been, there was nothing but empty hollow sockets . Horror watched over me at the sight of her open gaping mouth ,the slashed neck, the bruised purple skin stains and the bloodied body .

"Oh no, I - - I've got to get out of this godforsaken Place" I thought, my chest heaving as a deep, guttural sound echoed through the darkness.

"WHO DARES ENTER" Finally, the freezing statue spoke-like jaw snapping open with an unnatural, grinding noise .

"Who's there?" I asked no one in particular, disbelief ticking in my voice as I squeezed my eyes shut wishing it was all imaginations.

"YOU WILL BE MY FIRST MEAL HAHAHA HA!!!!!!" The girl-like creature screeched. She lunged forward, stretching her razor- sharp, bloody nails directly towards my throat. luckily, I moved fast stumbling backward just in time ,even though my legs felt heavy and sluggish from the shrill terror of the trance.

" Aaaahh !" I screamed turning to run with my dog, but unfortunately, my poor dog got caught in her vice-like, frozen grip.
